An electrosurgery probe comprises tip, mid-, and electrical contact segments. The mid-segment is a tube that is open at one end, closed at the other, and has an interior flow passage. An opening formed through the wall of the tube adjacent to the closed end of the mid-segment is in fluid communication with the interior flow passage. An electrosurgery system includes the electrosurgery probe and an electrosurgery handpiece. The handpiece comprises an elongate body segment and an exhaust cap attached to the body segment. A main flow passage extends longitudinally through the handpiece, and a second passage extends longitudinally through a distal portion of the body segment. In use, the probe is removably disposed in the handpiece such that the electrical contact segment is positioned within the second passage and the mid-segment opening is positioned within the exhaust cap and in fluid communication with the main flow passage. |
